Words of Wisdom

Tonight the family went to the middle school to play football. On the way home, we stopped at the gas station to get drinks. Caden was debating between Orange Crush and Hawaiian Punch. I assured him that both were good, but maybe he should try something new. He decided on the Hawaiian Punch. He drank a few sips and said, "Hey. This isn't perfect, but its really good!"

Why is it so hard for us grown-ups (by us grown-ups I mean me) to let go of the idea of perfection? We constantly strive for it, stressing ourselves out in the process. Thank you Caden for putting it so plainly. It doesn't have to be perfect to be really good!!
